Abstract We investigated the integration of transient liquid-assisted growth (TLAG) approach for epitaxial YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− x (YBCO) films by physical deposition methodologies (pulsed laser (PLD)), as an additional opportunity high-throughput YBCO. As a prerequisite, highly flat and amorphous YBCO precursor were deposited PLD at temperatures below 400 °C on single-crystalline SrTiO (STO) LaMnO (...

purpose : to investigate the sensations experienced by chinese patients during refractive surgery including the laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik), epi-lasik, and sub-bowman keratomileusis (sbk) techniques. a prospective, randomized, and self-matched clinical study was conducted. methods : the participants included 44 men and 58 women aged 16 to 47 years old (mean 24.3±0.6 years) who underwen...

introduction: the purpose of this case report is to analyze the results of vestibuleplasty around an over-denture based on dental implants to determine the evidence on the effectiveness of laser-assisted surgery and soft tissue management in implant dentistry. case report: the patient in this case report was a 57 year- old male who was completely edentulous, with a mandibular over denture based...

Laser ablation of Ta plates using nanosecond optical vortex pulses was carried out, for the first time. It was suggested that owing to orbital angular momentum of optical vortex, clearer and smoother processed surfaces were obtained with less ablation threshold fluence, in comparison with the ablation by a nonvortex annular beam modified from a spatially Gaussian beam.

Laser– assisted permanent hair removal iscommonly performed for the treatment of unwantedhair. This procedure is usually associated withpain and pain reduction has an important role inthe success of this treatment. A common methodof reducing pain is to use topical analgesics . Amixture of lidocaine and prilocaine (EMLA) is acommonly used and very effective topical anesthetic.Another agent is di...

This work proposes the use of femtosecond laser-written fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors for internal temperature monitoring tumors undergoing gold nanorod (AuNR)-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT). Arrays sub-millimetric FBGs enabled an accurate and quasi-distributed measurement within subcutaneous breast in mice. Furthermore, permitted to investigate laser-tissue interaction AuNR-assisted e...

Laser assisted manufacturing methods, such as direct metal deposition (DMD) and laser beam welding (LBW), are promising methods because of their higher precision and greater productivity when compared to traditional manufacturing methods. Because these methods are relatively new, the mechanical properties of samples produced by laser assisted manufacturing are not well understood. In this study...
